you're only ashamed because you were caught.

[@TheSoliderboy24]

exactly

[@pauloaustria7798]

True

[@labella370]

Exactly

[@ThatGmoney]

Houston Yu I actually look at this video in another light. I was working on a Hollywood film set and for the life of me, I thought I had great coworkers even had a friend till she found out that particular show booked me in for more days than her. My friend turned on me and threw stuff at me. I broke in tears and I thought I would never do that till I had a production assistant barricade me from getting into a set. I pushed him eventhough it didn’t hurt like how my friend threw things at me but when I realized what happened. I was so ashamed. I did feel ashamed for the production assistant but then he went to brag about his failed start up career and how he half asses his patents to investors. So apologizing was no more a priority on my list. But reflecting, I was sad to see myself so arrogant and entitled. I was lucky there was only a witness but no footage of me unlike the latter. From my understanding, she has moved on from this ordeal, has become a family doctor not a prestigious neuro surgeon, got married to a prosecutor and I’m sure she has learned a lot. She does have to refrain from taking full responsibility on camera or writing it because despite paying for damages, she could still get sued. At one point in time, I was definitely against her but she didn’t kill anyone. I’m glad she was an example because people even like me screw up but we still provide jobs, we still give back to the community. I’m sure she has learned. It’s not like she’s ELIZABETH Holmes.

[@layahails9655]

👍 True

[@royallvetanrajan2479]

Abc news should be ashamed to assist someone who is the agressor as a victim through the metodeological questioning that softens this case, just because she is a woman. I totally loose respect for anyone with this kind of double standard and moral. Imagine if this doctor was male and uber driver female, and same thing happened. He would had his licence revoked, as this behaviour is 100% innapropriate. As a doctor, sure their humans, but also a role model we trust our life @, and keeps our depest secrets related to our personal info and health issues. I would never trust someone who could act like this. Its one thing to have a small isolated case of verbal assault, or 1 non dangerous hit, and retreat. This shows a character that puts my trust as well as anyones trust on line. Trust is something I consider important. Espeacially when you have a work as a doctor.

My hope is that if I get a son or a daughter, I want them both to not be restricted or opressed because they have a certain gender.

You're not gonna have a job tommorow" and, next thing you know, she gets put on 'administrative leave'.

[@1980keb]

​@@ADSuri That's because double standards are starting to finally change. When this came out 4 years ago, the double standards for men and women were still quite high. With that said, I still believe women get away with much more then men do in social situations because humans(especially males) are hard wired psychologically to protect women and see them as victims instead of villains. I know thats not aligned with PC ideology, though it's still evolutionary psychology regardless of whoever may get offended.

I've seen men running away hands over their head trying to protect themselves from alcohol and bottles being thrown at him from a woman.

[@keva590]

+Username [Redacted] You realize that these diversity initiatives negatively affect East Asians/South Asians the most right? They are the most competitive ethnic groups in the US and if there wasn't affirmative action, the STEM programs at all top schools would be 90% Asian. Also you do realize that there are more women enrolled in medical schools than men nowdays? They don't need affirmative action to get in. If you are mad that white men aren't enrolling or getting into medical schools then maybe you guys just aren't qualified enough or just aren't interested in medicine. It's been shown that South Asians/East Asians need to get higher scores on the MCAT than white people to get into med schools, regardless of gender. Just because she is a woman or Indian doesn't mean she got in on an affirmative action program.

That's actually typical with medical doctors. They don't have respect for psychology. I've seen a lot of examples of this in my life.

[@polarbearal]

Actually PTSD is more of a spectrum than people tend to think. Most people have childhood trauma in some form even if it’s more mild than trauma that others have faced. For instance I only realized recently how much of my negative habits and responses to stress were formed during middle school and high school when I was bullied. Not excusing her behavior but I’d be pretty traumatized if I sobered up to a video like that of myself going viral haha.

[@Albaloo292]

Sure. There can be all levels of trauma. But post traumatic stress disorder still requires a number of symptoms for it to be diagnosed. It was the way this doctor threw out that word while smiling. It appeared like she was exaggerating, which, on top of everything she has done, is just embarrassing for her. There are people with actual PTSD (not just trauma) for whom the minimization of the seriousness of this disorder is extremely harmful.

[@polarbearal]
